Object: In this paper, the authors' aim was to use CT perfusion imaging to evaluate the early changes in tumor microcirculation following radiosurgery in rat C6 brain gliomas.

Methods: C6 glioma cells were inoculated into the right caudate nucleus of 25 Wistar rats using a stereotactic procedure. Tumor-bearing rats were randomly divided into 2 groups (tumor group and treatment group).

Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the changes in early and late washout rates of 99mTc-methoxyisobutylisonitrile (MIBI) in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), and to analyze the relationships between early and late washout rates and the hypertrophic thickness of left ventricular (LV) wall.

Methods: The patients who were clinically diagnosed as positive for HCM underwent 99mTc-MIBI static planar and gated single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) imaging. Early (90 min after the intravenous injection) and late (4 h after the intravenous injection) washout rates of 99mTc-MIBI between HCM group and normal control group were compared.

Objective: Glucocorticoid (GC) has occupied a central role in the treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia due to its ability to induce apoptosis in neoplastic lymphoid cells. Glucocorticoid resistance is present among 20% initial acute lymphoblastic leukemia, even 80% refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Glucocorticoid resistance has been an important determinant of clinical outcome.
